Re: Push Notifcations for Harmattan (Pulse)

So from this whole thing we get that nothing will most likely ever happen. Which I guess is ok given Nokia's strategy, but at least some clear comunication would be welcomed.
Perhaps there is noone left to take care of this either anymore..

I await your Chinese whispered non-answer, + zero feedback from devs who'd actually know what happened (& is happening) to the entire framework.

It's not okay, they've failed to clearly articulate what's going on for almost an entire yr now, long before Harmattan/Symbian/Qt was phased out, read the original thread.
Yes, there was someone who stepped into Sotiris's role (of course it's quite different in nature now), I have their contact details, their name escapes me...
I would contact them directly, but I'm trying to do things via "proper channels", & am hoping that for once; "Nokia gives a shit"....

Obviously not working. Go for the direct way. Even tho even that might not solve things. And if you could try to find out what is going on with this whole Harmattan tragedy behind the scenes, it would help.

Re: Swipe duplicating started words

PRECONDITIONS
PR1.3 firmware

STEPS LEADING TO THE PROBLEM:
Take some images in summer time (daylight savings time)
load images via USB to computer
Note that the times of the files are UTC times
wait until normal time
compare time stamps of images in N9 and in computer using USB

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
Time stamps should be equal

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
times differ by one hour (= offset of daylight savings time?)

FREQUENCY OF OCCURENCE:
Probably connected to daylight savings time and normal time switching.

WORKAROUND:
Well, I noticed the bug when I updated my backup using rsync (in my linux PC): It overwrote the existing files that it did not overwrite before. I had set rsync to skip overwriting based on modification time. Workarounds would be to set rsync (or equivalent) to skip based on size only or checksum, though the former may not be accurate, and the latter is slower.

That has been an urgent issue for over a year now. I guess not enough N9's have been sold to gather an angry mob large enough to impress Nokia, let alone to make Nokia care for these customers.

I've been submitting bugs to harmattan-bugs, and while most of them were "assigned" (whatever that may indicate) none of them were addressed in PR1.3. It seems to me that it, and these bug reports here, were all in vein.

Not that I will ever consider buying an ultra-limiting Windows Phone device, but given how Nokia treats their premium-price-paying and involved N9 customers I will not consider buying a Nokia at all.

Re: Alarms lost on reboot

Anyhow, jokes apart, the chances to get this fixed are VERY low, according to Nokia. But still not 0.
I wonder if they have someone who CAN actually fix any of these bugs?
If not, why dont they just open a dev channel to the community - and WE make the N9 the phone it is meant to be?
I was considering offering help to Nokia to fix this issue. But I am not sure it would be considered at all from their Management.

Re: Alarms lost on reboot

Nokia still says in http://harmattan-bugs.nokia.com/ front page that "We will continue to develop critical bug fixes related to security, performance and reliability of the device. If you have unreported issues that fall into these categories, please do contact us through the Nokia Developer discussion forum." Also please note what a retired Nokia developer admin Ron tells at http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...l=1#post888267 about this thread.

Given that :

I would like to report this GConf backdoor to the bugzilla as well, considering the issue _IS_ pretty critical I am sure we all agree it falls in the category of bugs
that have the privilege to be posted there.
So what you think Hamishwilee, sawwy?

Nokia brand is not trustworty anymore since elop step in into nokia.If nokia cant even fix a bug in their own os then how can we trust a brand that don't even own any os or should i say abandon their own os.I pity harmattan users because now the harmattan basically is just supported by its community only and as new os there are still a lot bug not fix..Sorry for my bad and weird english grammar

I think that I'm still waiting on comms to provide me with a canonical statement of whether we're still supporting critical bugs, and how. Until I get that anything I might post would be a personal opinion only.
